Marty’s photo of the day #1733: It’s Photos of Endangered Edens Week. In the past I’ve avoided posting photos from my books, and instead featured photos that didn’t quite make it. But the more I think about it, there really isn’t any reason I can’t post my published pictures. After all, they’re copyrighted, and the […]

Here’s why Martyman would be a better president than Donald Trump: Martyman has never been endorsed by Sarah Palin. Martyman has never been praised by Vladimir Putin. Martyman has never declared bankruptcy. Martyman has never told a lie. Martyman has bigger hands than Donald Trump. Martyman has better hair than Donald Trump. Martyman is an […]

Foreword Reviews is an influential magazine, read primarily by librarians and other industry professionals. The latest issue featured this really nice review of my book. In the print version of the magazine, they featured a special two-page “Spotlight” on environmental books, with one of my photos as the banner across the top of the two […]

Marty’s photo of the day #1729: It’s Australia Week. I’m finding it harder and harder to come up with photos from Australia that I haven’t posted before, but I think I found some good ones for this week. I didn’t see as many kangaroos as I expected, as I was in the wrong part of […]

Marty’s photo of the day #1728: It’s Australia Week. I’m finding it harder and harder to come up with photos from Australia that I haven’t posted before, but I think I found some good ones for this week. This is one of my favorite photos of Frog, the frogmouth bird. The following is a funny […]

Marty’s photo of the day #1727: It’s Australia Week. I’m finding it harder and harder to come up with photos from Australia that I haven’t posted before, but I think I found some good ones for this week. It’s a great big world out there when you are a teeny tiny frog!

Marty’s photo of the day #1726: It’s Australia Week. I’m finding it harder and harder to come up with photos from Australia that I haven’t posted before, but I think I found some good ones for this week. This is an Aussie Fangs-O-Death, which is a close relative of the Belizean Fangs-O-Death. At least those […]

Marty’s photo of the day #1725: It’s Australia Week. I’m finding it harder and harder to come up with photos from Australia that I haven’t posted before, but I think I found some good ones for this week. Laughing kookaburras are handsome birds with a very famous call: Oo-oo-oo-aw-aw-aw-oo-oo-oo-aw-aw-aw. When motion picture soundtracks were in […]

Marty’s photo of the day #1724: It’s Australia Week. I’m finding it harder and harder to come up with photos from Australia that I haven’t posted before, but I think I found some good ones for this week. Okay, I promised warm and cuddly this week. Here’s Deb feeding Bonnie—a baby silver wallaroo. You can’t […]

I couldn’t care less about Donald Trump and his penis insecurities. But the one thing Trump’s dickish spat with Marco Rubio did during last week’s debate was make people forget about Republican presidential candidates advocating for “rebuilding our military” and getting rid of the EPA. The current United States military budget continues to grow, and […]

Marty’s photo of the day #1722: This week’s theme is Amazon Rainforest Frogs. Coming up with a different nature picture every day is difficult, but I found some cool, un-posted, frog shots while perusing the photo files from my last Amazon trip. Some species I have identified; most I have not. Today’s photo is of […]

I’m normally poor at predicting major events, but I was right many months ago when I said that Donald Trump would not fade away like so many others were predicting. My reasoning was that supporting a candidate like Trump was the logical progression for a large group of ignorant, hate-filled people who’ve had their anger […]
